Special Educational Needs

Our SENCo is Mrs E Balderson.

She can be reached via the School Office if you have any concerns or queries about your child or by emailing senco@wrotham-road.sch.kent.uk

The school values the abilities and achievements of all its pupils. We endeavour to provide the best learning conditions for each pupil, promoting development in understanding and social maturity alongside their peers wherever possible. Special Education Needs are identified early and the school works closely to plan a curriculum to meet the children’s needs.

There is a learning support team led by the SENCo to provide extra support in school. If necessary, we involve outside agencies or further specialist advice and support. We work in partnership with the children, parents, carers, specialists and governors. The school values the abilities and achievements of all its pupils. We endeavour to provide the best learning conditions for each pupil, promoting development in understanding and social maturity alongside their peers wherever possible.

Please also have a look at the brochure below produced by Ifield School, which gives helpful training information and details of support groups and courses for parents and carers of children with Special Educational Needs.

We recognise the importance of helping all children achieve their full potential; emotionally, socially, physically and academically. We ensure they are fully included in all school activities, seeking external support and facilities when needed. For further information please see our SEND policy.
